Slip Away With You

Could I just sit down and sing this to you

It’s all that I want for awhile

All these things that tie up my tongue

They’ve been sticking to my lungs for awhile

 

And I’m sure that you’ve seen these parts of me before

Unintentionally, I’ve let myself slip away with you

 

I never want to break,

Never want to break down,

Never wanna lay down,

In myself again.

I, never want to break,

Never want to break down,

Never wanna lay down,

And die in myself, again.

 

Could I just mean this for a moment?

And even if you forget how we felt

Cause I never really told you in the first place

And now it’s bitter at the back of my throat

 

And I’m sure you’ve seen these parts of me before

Unintentionally I let myself slip away with you

 

I never want to break,

Never want to break down,

Never wanna lay down,

In myself again.

I, never want to break,

Never want to break down,

Never wanna lay down,

And die in myself, again.

 

I’ll go where you want,

Follow your heart,

Cause you’re all that I need to be fine, now,

Oh I found out.

I’ll go where you want,

You followed my dark,

And you’re all that I need to be fine, now.

 

I never want to break,

Never want to break down,

Never wanna lay down,

In myself again.

I, never want to break,

Never want to break down,

Never wanna lay down,

And die in myself, again.

Race Away

Could we move just a little bit faster?

I’m tired of standing so still.

You never took that chance on me like you promised,

But I guess I never really showed enough promise.

Left foot, and right foot,

Just one at a time,

Moving closer,

To the end of our lives.

 

Race, away,

Your sunlight burning through my gray,

Race, away,

A shooting star just miles from me, now,

And I’m catching up with you,

Not letting go so soon,

But I watch you race away.

 

Could we move just a little south of nowhere?

I’m so tired of still living.

You never look at me like you used to,

I guess I took some getting used to.

Left foot, right foot,

Just one at a time,

Moving just another inch closer,

To the best part of our lives.

 

Race, away,

Your sunlight burning through my gray,

Race, away,

A shooting star just miles from me, now,

And I’m catching up with you,

Not letting go so soon,

But I watch you race away.

 

I chase, what I want,

Sometimes away from the light.

I chase, what I want,

Sometimes away from the light.

 

Race, away,

Your sunlight burning through my gray,

Race, away,

A shooting star just miles from me, now,

And I’m catching up with you,

Not letting go so soon,

But I watch you race away.

Coin Toss

When I ask for a reason

Please give me a sign

Oh, let me know

That you’re still alive.

You move slower and slower,

Towards the door,

If you wanted to leave,

What are you staying for?

 

Your heartbeat paused,

For a moment where,

It doesn’t know what it wants,

Better listen to your head.

 

Trapped by the air to your brain,

They’re singing your song again.

Same sounds, don’t fight it,

C’mon don’t fight it.

Toss the coin in the air,

You’ll know what you want in the end.

 

Your blood’s too thick to quicken,

And your feet too still to move.

Why don’t you smile when the picture’s taken,

Only to forget that you were self-removed.

You move slower and slower,

Towards the door,

If you wanted to leave,

What are you staying for?

 

Trapped by the air to your brain,

They’re singing your song again.

Same sounds, don’t fight it,

C’mon don’t fight it.

Toss the coin in the air,

You’ll know what you want in the end.

 

Open your eyes, this is last time you see black and white,

This is the last time you see gray.

And when I ask for a reason why,

Oh, what, oh what will you have to say?

 

Trapped by the air to your brain,

They’re singing your song again.

Same sounds, don’t fight it,

C’mon don’t fight it.

Toss the coin in the air,

You’ll know what you want in the end.

Work or Play?

I hate when I see you walk away

Cause my efforts were wasted again

I hate when I let you do that to me

Twist my insides in the best way

Now it’s not just a feeling,

I don’t wanna be the loser in this game.

 

Are you work, or play?

Cause I can’t wait one more day,

You’re playing with this heart

Making it so hard,

To walk away, oh.

Keep You

I never wanna have to forget you

Cause you’re the one who’s getting me through

All my life it’s been a change of hands

But now I’ve got something to stick to

And it’s stupid that I’d feel this way

And it’s stupid that we’d try

But I hope that you’re here to stay

Cause everything feels so right.

 

Could I keep you?

Could I have you?

To love and to hold,

I’m so out of control,

When I want you.

When I need you.

Could I keep you?

 

I never wanna ever forget you

Even if we don’t make it through

But all my life’s been something strange

And it only gets better with you

And it’s stupid that I’d feel this way

Is it stupid that I really wanna try?

But I hope that you’re here to stay

Cause everything feels alright.

 

Could I keep you?

Could I have you?

To love and to hold,

I’m so out of control,

When I want you.

When I need you.

Could I keep you?

 

And I’m lame and I’m stupid,

Making excuses

But you never let me do that.

I owe no apology

I be what I want to be

And you’re always okay with that.

I never want to have to forget you,

Cause I need you more, than I can say.

 

Could I keep you?

Could I have you?

To love and to hold,

I’m so out of control,

When I want you.

When I need you.

Could I keep you?

 

I never wanna have to forget you…

Cause you’re the one who’s getting me through…

Could I keep you?

Everything feels so…
